Lot Details
A Russian Porcelain Topographical Plate: View of the Elagin Palace Imperial Porcelain Factory, St. Petersburg, Period of Nicholas II (1894-1917), circa 1904 9-1/4 inches (23.5 cm) PROVENANCE: The Thomas Mansfield Collection of Imperial Russian Porcelain; John Atzbach Antiques, Bellevue, Washington, acquired from the above; The Kathleen Durdin Collection of Russian Decorative Arts, Tampa, Florida, acquired from the above. The Elagin Palace was built in 1822 to plans by the architect Carlo Rossi, for Empress Maria Alexandrovna, the mother of Emperor Alexander I. By the 20th century, the palace was leased by the Imperial family as a residence for the Russian Prime Ministers. Witte, Stolypin, and Goremykin all lived there. This view of the palace from across the water is likely after an engraving by F. Perne from the 1840s. A related porcelain example from the "Babigon" service is illustrated, Znamenova, V.V. (ed.), Imperatorskii Farforovii Zavod, 1744-1904, St. Petersburg, 2008, p. 273. Property from the Kathleen Durdin Collection HID12401132022 © 2024 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
